How Deep The Father’s Love For Us
We used this modern day hymn in our service this past Sunday and the lyrics were just incredible to me… the line “I hear my mocking voice call out among the scoffers” really puts an emphasis on God’s love for us. I know the song is about 10 years old at this point but still […]

A Good Friday Feet on the Farm with John Deere
This is a very late version of Friday Feet today, but it’s technically still Friday. This late post is because We had an incredible, very humbling, Good Friday service today-tonight, (a post which will have to wait until tomorrow when I can get to the images). After finishing up a book review for Liberty this […]

Happy Birthday Dad from 10,000 Miles Away in Uganda

A Father’s Love Letter to His Child :: Poem
I found this poem this morning and thought I would share it. Even though I haven’t posted to my blog in a while I still enjoy the world of blogging and everything that goes a long with it. The first few months of 2010 have been challenging, but it’s nice to finally see some warmer […]

Son of a Son of a Photographer?
Father’s Day is an interesting day in the U.S. calendar (see my rant on Father’s Day called Why I Don’t Like Father’s Day // Top 10 if you are so inclined). To me, as I am sure with others, it is a day of reflection as well as one to honor the father. We are […]
